weird inconsistencies

[James Machiavelli]

Morning all,


So I picked up a edge+ yesterday and I'm wondering if I received a bad unit. First my benchmarks seemed a little off, but some of you let me know that those results can be a little skewed. However now, I've found something else that's off. I ran my IMEI and it gave back some incorrect information. Multiple databases listed it as an galaxy s5 model instead of a Galaxy s6 edge+. Could someone here run their IMEI and see if you get the same results? Hopefully I'm just being paranoid.

I ran mine on https://imeidata.net/ and it shows up correctly as a G928C

What does yours show as?

On that site mine shows Model:GALAXY S5 (A3LSMG900V),NOTE 4 (A3LSMN910V). I think Verizon may have given me a bad phone.

Can I ask where you're getting your IMEI from? Is it from the phone itself or the packaging?

From the phone. Under the 'about phone' option in the setting menu.

Maybe it's a Verizon Edge + thing. Mine says Galaxy 5/ Note 4 when I run it.

When i 1st bought the phone from att they had trouble activating it from the incorrect imei, it was listed as a tablet.

Mine from at&t is listed as a tablet as well. Sounds like the site has some bad information.

I have an s6, but my imei says it's for a s5. I looked up a couple other things on my dev and my sim is used with s5 and galazy note
.... half the features are blocked as a result :
